1 Lord, I look up to you,up to heaven, where you rule.
2 As a servant depends on his master,as a maid depends on her mistress,so we will keep looking to you, O Lord our God,until you have mercy on us.
3 Be merciful to us, Lord, be merciful;we have been treated with so much contempt.
4 We have been mocked too long by the richand scorned by proud oppressors.
